Boiling blood

I simply had to read Miranda

Well, she´s at her jaw-dropping best, that´s for sure.

She concludes with:
"He was... who... went back to Afghanistan to fight the US and its allies with his terrorist mates."

So, doesn´t that make him (as we maintained all along) a prisoner of war?

Yes, it does, you stupid dumb bitch.

Alatriste

Ladies, get ready to touch yourselves.

Guys, get ready to touch yourselves.

Take Aragorn. Make him into a 16th Century Spanish Adventurer piratical hero figure. Make the fighting grittier.

Viggo Mortgensen speaking Spanish, fabulous hats, floofy shirts, pike and shot, sword fights, massed ranks, battle on sea and battle on land, pitched battles and one-on-one. Atmospherically shot at night.
Jaw dropping luscious detail.

I just saw the trailer.

Alatriste

Topsy has humorous nipples

The boy is showing an early sense of humour it seems... or perhaps he just knows his father is really jokey and sometimes you just have to laugh at him.

I usually feed the baby while I'm sitting on the lounge with the baby lying on a pillow. At one feed time Tops was sitting in my spot and grabbed the pillow, so I handed him the baby. MrJ looked up, saw the wrong chest and just cracked up.

Perhaps he understood the joke or perhaps laughing at dad is a survival instinct, I don't know, but it was very cute.

Weasel Stomping

Tops and I went to see Weird Al last night.

It was very loud, very silly and many bright flashing lights. One of the highlights was this little animation I just have to show you. Weasel stomping day!

Thanks to Meg and Snerg for baby sitting the evil demon spawn, aka our son. Apparently he was very well behaved and slept the whole time. You guys should come round more often!

I probably would have enjoyed the evening more had I been less tired (I'm not used to late nights anymore) and Tops was fretting a little because it's the first time we've gone out without the boy, but it was good to get out to a show.

While on the subject of disturbing thing

Has anyone else seen the latest in the war on immorality? I think the one which surprised me the most is the raising of the age of consent. There's a few others which also surprise me as being the important issues of the Australia today. I'm curious how accurate their summary is of certain political parties.

Things that make you go FFS...

Three female high school students in the US were suspended from school after using the word vagina during a presentation of, wait for it, the Vagina Monologues. The school principal said they were suspended for disobeying their teachers who told them not to say vagina, not for actually saying vagina. Fortunately some sense has prevailed, after outrage from peers and parents, and the suspensions have been postponed. (SMH March 10-11 2007 p21).

Whose birthday is it next??

... and how much would they love a dalek cake?
